Receiver–Amplifier, Self‐Immolative Dendritic Device

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2007
AbstractSelf‐immolative dendrimers disassemble through a domino‐like chain fragmentation initiated by a single cleavage at the dendrimer core. We have designed and synthesized dendritic molecules that resemble dendritic architectures present in nature.

Programmable Microcapsules from Self-Immolative Polymers

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2010
For the autonomous repair of damaged materials, microcapsules are needed that release their contents in response to a variety of physical and chemical phenomena, not just by direct mechanical rupture. Herein we report a general route to programmable microcapsules.

Esterase Sensitive Self-Immolative Sulfur Dioxide Donors

Organic Letters, 2017
A series of cell-permeable esterase-sensitive sulfonates that undergo self-immolation to produce sulfur dioxide (SO2), a gaseous pollutant with new and emerging biological roles, is reported. These compounds should facilitate the study SO2 biology and will lay the platform for newer stimuli-responsive donors of this gas.
